We stayed at this hostel only for two nights. Everything was great. The staff was very helpful always willing to help you organize tours around Chiapas. The rooms were very good and clean the best thing about the hostel is the garden. Every night there were bonfires at the garden. I really enjoyed my stay there. Strongly recommended

san cristobal de la casas is known for it's cold nights,but never fear this hostel has that covered as well.PLENTY of thick warm blankets to keep those cold nights at bay.it's that getting up for your morning joe that's cold.but that to turns into decent weather and the town is eye full of thing to please all your senses.this place...

We didn't book in advance but turned up and got lucky with their last available room for 2 nights - a private queen room with bathroom. Roscoes has both private rooms and dorms. The staff are very welcoming and friendly, and the facilities are great for a hostel, more like a hotel! Breakfast is available each morning, a fire pit...

Super friendly stuff , excellent facilities kitchen ,dining area and showers.
Every night they light a bonfire a lot of nice dogs living there.
The dorms where really clean and tidy and the location is excellent.

Friendly staff, excellent shared facilities (kitchen, dining areas, fire area, cinema room). Private rooms were really comfortable and the female dorms were nice too... lovely soft blankets!!! Ohhhhh and the dogs and cats... saved from the streets and now living in doggy and pussy paradise :))) If you don't like dogs and cats probably not the best hostel for you...

100% recommend staying here whether it's for 1 night or 10. Staff are super friendly & helpful with directions, tours etc. Hostel, bathrooms & communal kitchen is clean with nice linen provided for beds. They have wifi plus a bonfire every night in the courtyard! Safety is also great they provide a large locker and sell padlocks for 30 pesos

The staff was super nice and helped in anything you wanted! And the house is an architectural wonder! Only thing bad is the bathroom that were few and a bit dirty! Good place for party! and wonderful town! The locations is very good! and I personally loved that there is a small fire place to chill and have some drinks...

Had a really nice time here, the place is so relaxing, with beautiful gardens and good natured dogs running around. We had a private room, which was beautiful and had great views from the balcony. Kitchen is good and well stocked; breakfast was simple but good.

after doing more extensive research and having stayed in a not so great hostel here I came upon the backpacker's hostel rossco.they run a very good hostel clean and very affordable.but it was the beds in the dorms that won me over.they were incredibly comfortable and plently of covers to keep you warm on cold san cristobal nights.centraly located to...

This place was lovely! My friend and I stayed in the ladies dorm room, it was clean, blankets we super cozy, the shared bathrooms were also clean and there was plenty of hot water. Staff was friendly and informative, the 8-10pm fire each night is a great way to meet people...not too wild party vibes either. People usually link up...
